Hey everyone...
Lately I seem to have a rather strange bug on my phone:
Whenever I try to install an app from android market, the same thing happens:
The phone downloads the app and then it doesn't install it. It goes to 100% and then it disappears from the notification bar, before installing it. I have to download several times the same app, in order to get it installed.
Any ideas what might be the problem and the solution here?
Happens with me too. Also checked friends motorolla defy and the same problem repeats. Looks like it is a bug for market, not the device.
The problem mostly occurs when the same app is getting downloaded twice at the same time. Even if we cancel one download, the 2nd one goes to 100% without installing. But such downloaded app will be present somewhere in /data partition. Last time I manually installed it from there but don't remember the path correctly.

Does any one have same problem or know how to fix it?

I have the same problem too.
Sometimes even, there are no apps on the market carousel but i can live with out that.
The problem is that My Apps is missing several of the applications i have on the phone,when i search for the missing apps through the market they display installed or update if its available.
The second problem is that if i go to the Just in section and press anywhere i get the force close pop up and it brings me back to the previous screen.
I have tried clearing the cache and data but it didn`t help,then i uninstalled the updates and the problems where gone but after the market updated itself the same problems reappeared.
I am runing a stock 2.2.1 with LauncherPro.
Oh and yes I have searched the net but couldn`t find any help.
Hey everyone here its not a problem actually you might have installed application which are not available for your region or you might have installed cracked applications thats y market doesn't show that.
No that is not the case here.All of apps except one were installed from the market.
I can`t see for example 3g watchdog,Angry birds,Desktop Visualizer,Shazaam... among others and it still wouldn`t explain the force close issue.
Update:
Well the market sorta fixed itself,well almost,since i still have the force close issue when i try to tap in the Just in section.
All of the downloaded apps are now listed in My apps,the market carousel is working properly and only the force close issue remains.
Any ideas anyone??
My market app fixed itself...yesterday I open it and its normal again.
Hi all,
I have a kinda big problem with my Wildfire S.
Every time I install an app from the market, it works fine but when I reboot the phone the app starts downloading again even when it's already working without any problems.
When the download is complete, the problem is gone. When turning the phone back off/on it starts downloading again... And that's the big problem.
Does anyone know a solution for this?
The problem occurs when I tried to install widgets and apps from HTC Hub and same problems with apps from the market, like SiMi Clock and other widgets.
And this while on other Wildfire S phones it seems to work normal.
I think I've tried everything, like rebooting, restoring factory settings, uninstalling and reinstalling....
Thank you already, just for reading this ;-)

//EDIT// problem solved -> phone back to manufacturer. Thx for your "help" guys...
Sometime after upgrading to 4.1.1 my Galaxy Nexus began to have trouble viewing Youtube. At first I blamed the network, but trying to view a video in the gallery has begun to produce the same result, causing the app to hang and crash, as well as causing Face Unlock to stop working, requiring a restart. Clearing the app's Data and Cache have no effect. This was only a minor inconvenience until I installed 4.1.2; Since the update having a Youtube or Gallery video fail causes the Clock app to stop working when my alarm is supposed to be triggered in the morning. Google Play Music still works fine.
The problem occurs at totally random intervals after startup, usually after a full day of being turned on, and I'm not entirely sure if it was initially caused by the JB update. I have enabled "Show all ANRs" in the developers options to no avail. When upgrading to 4.1.2 the OTA failed, as did trying to install the OTA files through CWM. I was forced to re-flash the device without wiping. I have a GSM Nexus running Stock 4.1.2 takju JB, rooted and unlocked with Clockwork Mod Touch custom recovery. I've tried searching the internet for people in the same situation as me, and although I've found several similar, I haven't been able to find the same problem, or a way to fix it. I have already tried using Fix Permissions in CWM, closing and uninstalling other unrelated apps, and Clearing the Data and Cache for all the affected apps.
Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

wipe data/factory reset
I realize that will almost definitely fix the problem, but I'm wondering if anyone has an idea of what could be done short of wiping or re-flashing the device. I'd like to keep a factory reset as a last resort, but thanks for the quick reply.

Not entirely sure if this is the same but my camera, gallery, music and a few others wouldn't work, giving a no storage error. I flashed a different kernel and now all is good, maybe worth a try before a full reset!

I've heard of a few problems like that, but my phone gives me no error dialogs at all, it just stops working. All the apps are fine until I try to view a video. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't, but if the video does fail and I have to mash home to to get out of the app then anything media related stops working with the exception of Play Music. Sometimes I don't even get an ANR.
I might try to flash a new kernel. Could you tell me which on you used?

Have you tried reflashing the gapps?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
I haven't tried Reflashing Gapps yet. I've attached a logcat file from when Youtube, Gallery and Camera stopped working. Only Face Unlock displayed an ANR. I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly when the services stop working, but it doesn't seem to be when I do something specific to the phone.
Backing up, reflashing the phone and the restoring all my apps and data fixed the problem. Thank you all for the sugestions.

Hi guys, I never posted here but am trying to find some help. I've had my S4 for quite a while now, and I just factory reset everything because I kept getting a "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." message that wouldn't go away or let me use my phone without an interruption literally every 2 seconds. But before I even had that problem, there were worse problems as well. There are two things that occur frequently:
1. Sometimes, when I tap on an icon, the indicator light shows up (a glow around the icon), but the app itself does not open. Then, if i tap on it repeatedly, nothing happens. I can temporarily fix this problem by opening up the recent/opened apps list (holding home button) and clearing everything (or clicking on that app if it had been opened). Once cleared, I can tap it again and it would open. As you might see, this can get very annoying and troublesome after doing it so many times. Is there anyway I can permanently fix this so that I don't need to keep clearing the open apps list?
2. Sometimes, when I unlock my screen, exit an app, press the home button, or clear the opened app list (as mentioned above), my wallpaper changes to an app. The app is usually random and sometimes is not one that I had opened. For example, the background of my messaging app or Astro File Manager would show up even if I had not recently opened it at all. I can also temporarily fix this by clearing the recent/opened apps list (as mentioned in #1). After clearing this, the wallpaper resets. Is there any way I can fix this permanently as well?
3. Snapchat and VSCO Cam constantly "stop unexpectedly". I don't know if this is a firmware or incompatibility issue, but it usually works fine. This message pops up once in a while and isn't too burdensome, but is still quite annoying.
Thank you for all the help in advance. I am trying to get the most out of my phone and appreciate any help.
Are you running stock or custom and has anything changed since you factory reset?

It's stock right now. Not rooted or anything at all. I didn't really change much of the device internally, only downloaded a couple of apps, but those have been working fine since the beginning. It is running Kit Kat, 4.4.2. I am currently using Nova Launcher as my home screen replacement.
My wife and I both have OP3 and this morning we are seeing the same issue of apps installing but unable to open. Just get the app splash screen and then it closes again. Tried on a number of apps and even using data or WiFi. Still does the same.
We both updated to 3.2.2 the other day and that is the only thing I can think that has changed.
Any ideas?
